| Mandriva is a pretty nice distribution. No rough edges, great software, but
| the Package Manager is very simple.That is the only thing you can really
| strike it with, other than Personal preference. Installation isn't going to
| take your afternoon computer time. That's great too. Very cool distribution,
| I would have to say a 4/5.

| Mandriva has a deserved reputation for following the cutting edge of
| free/open source software development, introducing exciting and interesting
| new applications and technologies almost as they are developed. The Mandriva
| build system is one of the more sophisticated in the Linux distribution
| industry. It was adopted from Conectiva after the Mandrake / Conectiva
| merger.

| Mandriva development is carried out jointly by Mandriva's offices in Russia,
| France and Brazil. The Mandriva Linux OS is thus considered a national OS for
| Russia. The decision of FSTEC of the Russian Federation (RF) implied that
| Russian public agencies will be authorised to use the Mandriva Linux OS on
| PCs running confidential information.

| Melmed explained that the application was web-based, meaning that it could be
| accessed by any browser. He noted that the Angola's governmental departments Â*
| used both Mandriva and Windows as their operating systems.
